“I would like, before I die, to see the changes I've always fought for ...” — Brigitte Bardot Quote

“I would like, before I die, to see the changes I've always fought for being made. If not, my life will have been worth nothing.”

“I never get hung up on the past - the memories are too negative.”

“I don't feel old or used up, and I don't have time to waste thinking about aging, because I live only for my cause.”

“The heart stays the same, the body changes but the spirit stays forever youthful.”

“Obviously as I'm getting older, I'm seeing changes in my body that I may not like... but I do love food, and I'm from the South. I'm not gonna lie, I eat fried chicken, I love macaroni and cheese, and I love grits.”

“It constitutes a superhuman effort to lead any people in times of crisis. Without them, the changes would be impossible.”
